I woke up feeling absolutely wonderful, until I realized Kylo Ren was already gone. A shiver ran down my spine. Why didn't he say goodbye? Did this mean nothing to him? Was everything just about sex now? I grumbled and made my way to the bathroom, hoping to find Kylo Ren there, but I found no one.

Then I remembered his touch, his full lips on mine. How can someone be as gentle as an angel but cruel at the same time?

After getting ready, I thought I needed some answers. I wanted to look for Kylo Ren and demand some clarity.

I got dressed and walked out of my quarters, determined to find Kylo Ren's chambers. But then, I was surprised to see Captain Phasma standing not too far from my quarters.

"Captain (Y/N)! I have urgent news," she said.

"Someone reported seeing the Jedi. We planted a tracker on his ship. I thought you might be thrilled to capture him."

I paused, my mind shifting away from thoughts of Kylo Ren and refocusing on the Jedi. I would personally capture him, and this time, I wouldn't let him slip away so easily.

I nodded, a determined expression crossing my face.

"Where is he?" I asked, my voice steady.

Captain Phasma handed me a data pad, the blinking red dot indicating the tracker's signal.

"He's on a remote planet just outside our system. We're assembling a team now, but General Hux wants you to lead it."

The weight of the mission settled on my shoulders, a heavy responsibility. It was my chance to redeem myself after my previous failures. I looked at Phasma, and she nodded, sensing my readiness.

"Get the squad ready," I said, my tone resolute.

"I'm not letting him escape this time."

Captain Phasma turned on her heel, her armor clinking as she moved away to make the preparations. I took a deep breath, glancing down at the data pad. The blinking red dot was a symbol of my second chance.

This time, there would be no hesitation. I would capture the Jedi and prove myself once again. And perhaps, when it was all over, I would find Kylo Ren and get the answers I needed.

With my heart still torn between conflicting emotions, I made my way to the hangar. The troops were already gathering, and the ship was being prepped for departure. I watched as the stormtroopers readied their weapons, a renewed determination taking hold of me.

I was going to bring the Jedi back, no matter what it took. And maybe, just maybe, I would find clarity in the chaos that my life had become.
